Sunday Night Hoops

Sadly, the Holes have found their stride and will blow past Creighton. But we can still scout Kansas and Purdue for next Friday, and enjoy a few other nontraditional matchups – such as South Florida and Ohio vying for the right to square off against Carolina. Norfolk State is cooked, but perhaps Lehigh can squeeze by Xavier and keep a true underdog alive past the first weekend.

I haven’t seen Kansas play that often, but some of the analysts were comparing them to Duke, as teams that didn’t have the typical 1/2 talent and may have already played to their max potential. So that gives me some hope against the Jayhawks.

Purdue isn’t very good, I was quite surprised that they beat St. Mary’s. The Boilers are similar to us culturally, so it would be cool to play them in the Sweet Sixteen (wow, it’s still weird to say that).

I think that UNC’s best chance to lose before the final four will be if we make it to the elite eight, which is really strange. I would love to beat them, but would HATE to lose to them again. Four times in one season is too many.
